Quality is GREAT! Super glossy, thick card stock, and the print is flawless.

I use vista print for my appointment cards - not glossy obviously.
I don't like their glossy card stock - personally it feels cheap to me, and I prefer spending the extra elsewhere for matt laminate bus. cards.
For appointment cards though - very good.

Vista Print is the best in my opinion. Just ordered 1000 glossy cards for $10.00 and shipping was something like $7. Grand total was around $17.00, no complaints here. The cards look great as well!

I love VistaPrint. I got my first 250 for free, only had to pay the $5 shipping.
If you're a first time customer you can enter a code like
www.vistaprint.com/freespecial (http://www.vistaprint.com/freespecial)
www.vistaprint.com/specialfree (http://www.vistaprint.com/specialfree)
And yes, they do offer 2 sided cards, matching letter head and envelopes etc.

Well, I will go ahead and try vistaprint first and then GoodPrints... I am also going to work with this Artist for more ideas....
Please C&C and comment on these.... I usually advertise by word of mouth and large 8x10 flyers (posted around in the neighborhood)...
One for a more older crowd (market).

Hello Jackie,
Are these design for a business card or a flyer? If they are for a business card, be sure that they fit within the 3.5 x 2 inch frame with extra bleeds and crop marks. There is a possibility that, without bleed, your top images might be slightly chopped by 1/32" during the cutting process. The guide below might help a bit.

i got my vistaprint cards last week, but the actual card didn't match the proof (i'd created a black -> white gradient on the card, and used both black and white text; on the proof you could read all the black text, but the actual card was much darker, and the last part of the black text was not readable). i called customer service and they told me to create and upload a new design, and it would be processed and sent at no charge to me. nice!

Yeah they screwed up on mine once too. (I have ordered like 6 times) But they sent out the right order quickly.
